A randomized clinical trial published in JAMA found that patients with AF who consumed caffeinated coffee had a lower risk of recurrent AF or atrial flutter compared with those who abstained.

#AHA25 #AFib @ahascience.bsky.social

ja.ma/43UFh7x

📊 Research Summary from @jama.com: Adults with #AFib who drank at least one cup of caffeinated coffee daily after successful cardioversion had a lower risk of recurrence than those who abstained from coffee and caffeine.

ja.ma/47K8tPT

From @jama.com: Patients with #AFib who continued their usual caffeinated coffee intake after cardioversion experienced less recurrence of AF or atrial flutter compared to those who abstained from coffee and caffeine.

#HormoneTherapy reduces vasomotor symptoms w/o increasing #cardiovascular risk in postmenopausal women aged 50 to 59, but raises cardiovascular risk in those over 70, finds this secondary analysis of 2 RCTs.

ja.ma/47yoNTu

From @jama.com: Liberal transfusion after major surgery did not reduce death or major cardiac event rates compared to restrictive thresholds in high-risk patients.

Special Communication: Doubling of early-onset cancer incidence since 1992 in US adults <50 reflects increased diagnosis; mortality remains stable or declines. ja.ma/3WDtFls

🧵 JAMA, @jamainternalmed.com, and @jamanetworkopen.com conclude #KidneyWk with impactful findings:

In stable AKI patients, indication-based dialysis enabled faster liberation from dialysis and reduced health care resource use compared to conventional thrice-weekly treatment.

ja.ma/4nIK3Mo

💬 @jama.com Editorial: #SGLT2 inhibitor treatment benefits extend to people with CKD and low albuminuria, as well as those with advanced #KidneyDisease, supporting wider use.

#KidneyWk @asnkidney.bsky.social

ja.ma/4nFSM29

From @jama.com: #SGLT2 inhibitors slow kidney decline consistently across CKD severity and albuminuria range, supporting their routine use for kidney health.

💬 Editorial: Estrella et al show that integrated cystatin C and creatinine measurements improve CKD assessment compared to single-marker estimates.

#KidneyWK

ja.ma/3LxhhRy

💬 @jama.com Editorial: The LIBERATE-D trial shows conservative dialysis—guided by A-E-I-O-U indications and asking "Why"—promotes earlier kidney recovery and fewer dialysis sessions in AKI.

From @jama.com: In stable AKI patients, indication-based dialysis enabled faster liberation from dialysis and reduced health care resource use compared to conventional thrice-weekly treatment.
